How much do you know about Yunnan national architectural culture?

Multi-nationalities, rich resources and diverse landforms together constitute the foundation of Yunnan culture, among which the biggest difference is reflected in architectural style. In order to cope with different climates and landforms, different architectural structures have emerged, which are full of local wisdom and experience.

Unique, mysterious and diverse national culture, magnificent natural landscape and pleasant climatic conditions endow Yunnan with eternal charm. Yunnan has been a multi-ethnic area since ancient times, and all ethnic minorities have many historical legends and customs.

The culture of each nation has a strong color of "residence", which is the architectural culture of that nation in a certain sense. The lifestyle followed by all ethnic groups who have lived here for generations is the source and direction of minority culture. The architectural culture of ethnic minorities is rooted in Yunnan, a fertile land with rich regional and ethnic characteristics. National architecture with unique regional characteristics constitutes the most beautiful Yunnan symbol element that makes the world shine.

There are 25 ethnic minorities in Yunnan. When it comes to the cultures of ethnic minorities, apart from food and drink, the most attractive thing is the unique architecture of those ethnic minorities. The minority buildings in Yunnan are all alive. Approaching it, you will feel a strong cultural atmosphere, gripping and long aftertaste.

The Shadow of Bamboo House in Xishuangbanna

Living in a bamboo building is very pleasant. I smell the faint fragrance of bamboo and listen to the crisp sound of walking in the bamboo building. If it rains, I will watch the rain fall from the water curtain on both sides in the bamboo building. At this time, my mood and feelings will instantly enter the poetic realm of Tang Dynasty poet Li Jiayou. You don't need a sunflower fan in the south wind, but you sleep in a water gull with a gauze hat. "

The appearance of Dai bamboo house is a dry-column building with a herringbone roof. Xishuangbanna has a tropical monsoon climate with abundant rainfall. The herringbone roof is convenient for drainage and will not cause water accumulation. I have been to Xishuangbanna, and what excites me most is the dense tropical rain forest and the beautiful and unique bamboo building. From the appearance, it looks like a golden peacock with its screen open and a dancing flower. The beautiful scenery makes people suddenly feel like they are in a dream.

Qinggui San Fang Yi Zhaobi

"Three pavilions and one beautiful wall" is the most basic and common type of Bai folk houses. This kind of folk house is the most common in Bai area, giving people the impression of comfort, splendor and elegance. Most of the decorations in the yard are made of wood, which is extremely luxurious and varied, especially the carving skills of wood are very exquisite.

Not only did I feel the beautiful scenery and delicious food in Dali, but I also felt a deep affection that I couldn't help but want to blend into Dali's cultural atmosphere whenever I saw the heavy feeling of Dali Bai folk houses.

Hani Cultural Heritage: Earth Barrier House

It would be a great pity if you have been to Yuanjiang and have never lived in a Hani hut. The earthen palm house of Hani folk houses in Yuanjiang is a flat-topped house with civil structure. Muleng is placed on the soil foundation wall or rammed soil wall, and the wood is covered with a layer of soil and rammed flat to form a flat and smooth roof. Tuzhangfang is the primitive form of traditional houses of Hani nationality, bearing the cultural connotation of Hani nationality, and its unique architectural style shows different humanistic customs to the world.

Yunnan minority architecture

Yunnan minority architecture has cultural characteristics such as diversity, richness, originality and unique landscape, which embodies different social forms and family structures in the history of various ethnic groups. While protecting minority cultures, we should pay more attention to the importance of protecting local buildings. When it comes to how to protect the culture of ethnic minorities, if the original buildings that protect ethnic minorities disappear, then the culture will be incomplete.
